What I did to reinstall:

First I disabled Steam Cloud Sync (I did it for all games, but it will probably work if you only do it on CloD).

Next I went into 'My Documents' folder and renamed the '1C SoftClub' folder so when I reinstall all the files are replaced (you can do this without reinstalling as well and the game will rebuild the directory. ) All your config files (the hours you spent configuring your controller) are in this directory so you don't want to lose these files.

Next, (In Steam) right click on CloD in the Steam library menu and select "Delete Local Content".


Then select 'Delete'.


Wait a while....

Close Steam.

(I rebooted my computer, but it may not have been necessary).

At this point, start Steam and double check that your steam cloud is still disabled.

In Steam, right click on 'CloD' in the library menu and select 'Install Game' (in the right pane)


Steam is going to re-download everything (so if you have limited bandwidth maybe you should try a different fix first!!!)
Hopefully That did it!


Install Problems After Uninstall: (I'm afraid you may need to do this if you don't see the game in the Steam Library, RickRuski...)
If you are having install problems after uninstalling you can delete 'ClientRegistry.blob' from the main Steam directory (while Steam is not running). https://support.steampowered.com/kb_...7241-EYON-2343

This will force a re-validation of Steam so you will need access to the email you used with Steam as you will have to re-validate the account!!!!
